Workshop Sharing in Partnership with Center Theatre Group

We are thrilled to announce a partnership with Center Theatre Group in Los Angeles to support the development of a new play by renowned playwright Young Jean Lee. (Read more about Young Jean Lee here.)

This partnership is the first of its kind for OPC, allowing us to expand our support for playwrights and the development of their work, and deepen our relationships with producing theaters in Los Angeles to help progress new plays towards production.

The partnership will begin with a new play development workshop hosted at the Thacher School in Ojai from March 21 – 24. The workshop will conclude with a public sharing of the work-in-process with Young Jean Lee — and you're invited!

This event is free, but please reserve your seat in advance.

Join us for a work-in-process sharing with Young Jean Lee.
